Apple Picking 2009

This weekend we went back to Tougas Farms in Northborough to pick apples again. We were blessed with a perfect day weather wise and we picked 20 pounds of apples varying in size, color and taste. As has become our annual rite, most apples were picked by Dad lifting the boys towards the tops of the trees and them picking the best ones they can find and handing them down to Mom. It will be interesting to see how many years I will be able to continue to do that :)

Tougas also had many ladders out this year to help people pick some of the higher ones up and it was fun for the boys to each get turns climbing up on the ladder as well. Here are a couple of pictures and more are posted on Facebook.

It was a very bright day as you can see...though Kristen and Jude couldn't :)

Gotta love that smile!
